By Samantha Francis

Family-friendly restaurants can be a haven for parents who’ve had to suffer dirty looks from fellow diners who get annoyed by the little ones running around or making a lot of noise.

To make things easier for you this June holidays, we’ve rounded up six wonderful cafes and restaurants that will welcome your children with open arms — complete with special kids’ menus, a bouncy castle, a crafts corner or colourful, themed interiors!

Hello Kitty Orchid Garden — Kawaii

Singapore’s first Hello Kitty themed café, located at Changi Airport, emulates a garden city vibe that draws inspiration from our national flower, the orchid. Combined with the cat’s kawaii (cute) flair, it gives a uniquely-
Singaporean aesthetic.

Hello Kitty Orchid Garden’s menu incorporates local Singaporean in-fluences and comes with an array of Kitty-fied desserts such as gelato sundaes, waffles, pastry and teacakes. Don’t say we didn’t warn you; your kids will be eyeing the Hello Kitty merchandise, from adorable postcards to plush toys.
